Raita is an Indian dish; basically yoghurt with herbs ( coriander leaf, mint, maybe dill)and diced cucumber. Occasionally, a pinch of cumin.
There are many variants, however: spinach, potato, daikon radish.
The idea of a raita is a cooling dish, which offsets the spices in the main dishes. There's no such thing as a "salad"in Indian cuisine.
I've gotten mine from Walmart before. It does keep a rather long time and they shouldn't carry it if it's past expiry date.
I would probably make some hummus (with tahini, it's the best) to go with the pita or other type of flatbread and some raita or tzatziki to go with the falafel. I bet rascal has a good recipe for raita.
